The Kano State Police Command has invited Hon. Aminu Abdullahi Warkal, who was seen in a viral clip wielding a sophisticated firearm suspected to be a pump-action gun.
The Command’s Public Relations Officer, CSP Abdullahi Haruna Kiyawa, said that, in line with its sustained intelligence-led surveillance, robust community engagement and proactive security presence across the state, the police, while on routine cyber patrol, came across a video clip circulating on social media platforms in which Warkal was seen openly displaying a firearm suspected to be a pump-action rifle during what appeared to be a political gathering.
He said the alleged unlawful display of a firearm, if established, constituted a clear violation of the provisions of the Firearms Act and was capable of inciting fear, intimidating members of the public and breaching public peace and security.
Kiyawa noted that, on the directive of the Commissioner of Police, Ibrahim Adamu Bakori, Warkal was invited to the Command Headquarters, Bompai, Kano.
